Title: Do angencies link key words
Post by: old crow on July 07, 2014, 15:11
Are there any internal key word links that the agencies do automatically,  such as sand and dirt ?  Or is it all up to keyword skills?  The keyword generators,  are they problematic and cause rejection? Some of the stuff key generators do seems odd.   How do I educate myself on keywords that are neccessary but most new folks wouldn't even think about?

Thanks for your help.

one simple way is to go to an agency you submit to and look at keywords for images similar to yours. 

another way is to use the google keyword suggestions in adwords to see wehat people are actually looking for

In some agencies with a controlled vocabulary, synonyms and stemming is should be taken care of, but not sand/dirt as they're not exactly the same. Otherwise, you're on your own, and it's difficult to avoid 'false positives'.
